  1. Dear ma,

    Thank you, am also fine like you then yes ma am least for got

    but, ok  KVA=KWH \ 0.8


  2. the best way to express this is in energy, a watt-hour. It can be calculated by multiplying watts by hours. So if you have an appliance that uses 300 watts and it is turned on for 10 hours that is 3000 watt hours, or 3 kW-hr.

    1000 watt hours, that is, 1 kW-hr costs about 10 cents.

    Volt amperes are related to watts, they are the total power  used, including the reactive part. You can assume they are equal to watts for simplicity.

    So if you multiply VA by hours, you get watt-hours, and 1000 of those cost 10 cents.

  3. 1 unit of electricity= 1kWh= Energy

    This can't be expressed in terms of kVA which is a Unit of power.

  4. All of them is wrong the correct answer is as follows.

    First of all in kVA ( kilo -volt-amper )unit you have a cos factor.Ä°f you have transformer or motor or some other equipment there is a label on it sometimes on this label as you asked the power is given in kVA unit,in this case you have to check the label again for cos factor.When you have this factor ....kVA x Cos factor = KW

  5. 1KVA = 1000 VA  

    it uses on AC motor to show how much electricity it consumes. If you run this motor for one hour,it costs you to pay the electricity about 1kw per hour........about 30 to 50 cents U$.  It also expresses how big the motor power it can deliver. The higher KVA the bigger torque power it can supply.

  6. 1 kVAis one thousand (kilo) voltAmps(=> watts)

    1 of those is .001kVA
